What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Myocardial infarction (MI) involves a temporally evolving pathological cascade, in which acute NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated inflammation and insufficient reparative angiogenesis sequentially contribute to adverse ventricular remodeling. However, most current therapies lack the spatiotemporal control needed to match these evolving therapeutic demands. Here, we developed a core-shell microneedle (MN)-based epicardial patch for spatiotemporally programmed MI treatment through sequential delivery of the NLRP3 inhibitor MCC950 and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF). The rapidly hydrating methacrylated hyaluronic acid (HAMA) shell enabled early release of MCC950 to suppress acute inflammatory injury, whereas the chitosan-based core and backing layer provided sustained bFGF release to support later angiogenesis. The resulting HAMA/CS MN patch exhibited a well-defined core-shell architecture, suitable mechanical strength, excellent cytocompatibility, and differentiated release behavior.
